About Us

Empowered By Movement classes are designed for seniors and individuals with Parkinson’s disease to rediscover joy through movement.

Everyone is welcome, no matter your ability or mobility level, to join a vibrant and fun community that celebrates movement in a judgment-free zone! Our classes, inspired by the internationally acclaimed, research-backed Dance for PD program, bring the energy, joy, and connection of movement to life. Feel the rhythm, embrace the flow, and experience the power of music and community!

Benefits of creative movement.

• • Embrace your body’s abilities, recognizing the power in what you can do.
  • Boost brainpower and enhance memory, focus, and overall thinking skills—all while having fun.
  • Unleash your creativity, explore exciting new movements, and discover endless opportunities for self-expression!
  • Create a joyful space where everyone can move to their own rhythm, sharing the pure joy of music and movement in a totally judgment-free zone!

Our classes create an enriching, safe, and creative space where participants, along with their family, friends, and caregivers, can thrive. Through a dynamic and engaging approach, students enhance their grace and awareness while addressing mobility, flexibility, freezing, gait, social isolation, and mood. Each week brings new movement ideas to engage both the mind and body, inspired by jazz, tap, musical theatre, improvisation, choreography and more. Experience movement and music in fun, stimulating, and empowering ways!

A wide range of music will fuel your spirit, and we always offer options for modifying movements so everyone can join in and feel empowered. Whether you’re standing or seated, every movement—big or small—is meaningful and celebrated.
